The store I TO for is running its first Store Championship in January and we were curious what is normally expected that these events. Like what is a standard entry fee, common prize support outside of the FFG kit, is pre-reg allowed/encourage? Any common information would be great. Thanks.

It is really up to the store most of that. My store throws in things like gas cards, store credit, cool random star wars stuff, packs of sleeves, all depending on how many show up and how much the kit cost. We charge $10 per player. Other stores charge $5.00 that I have been to but don't throw in extras.

5-10 is the standard price. Much more than that and you'll drive players away, especially if you're in an area where there are others. If you're running it as an opportunity to get players into the store and get them familiar with your store, as a long term plan, then charge $5. If you just want to make a quick buck, charge $10. Or if you're adding other things to the prize pool to make sure that almost everyone walks away with something, then charge $10.
